When it comes to babies, sleep (or the lack of) is one of the most talked-about subjects between parents. If your baby doesn’t sleep then, unfortunately, you don’t sleep much either. Sleep problems can occur for many different reasons and you may feel at a loss, but we want to help. Here are a few hints and tips on how to create the perfect sleeping environment for your baby.
Temperature
Just like adults, babies will struggle to sleep if the temperature is either too hot or too cold, especially as they can’t regulate their body temperature like adults can. It’s suggested that your baby’s room should be at about 16-20°C for a much more comfortable night’s sleep. A Slumbersac Sleeping Bag is a great way to help maintain your baby’s body temperature throughout the night without the use of additional blankets, and it’s much safer too.

For new parents, settling your newborn baby can be a tricky task which can become stessful and tiring if you're finding it hard to find the right way for your baby. Swaddling has been widely used in many cultures globally as the blanket wrapping technique can stimulate the feelings of being in the womb and calm the child. However, not all newborn babies take to this technique as they don't like the feeling of being restricted. There are other alternatives to swaddling if your little one doesn't enjoy this and you're finding it difficult, such as sleeping bags.
Baby sleeping bags are designed in a way to allow lots of room for leg movement and do not restrict or straighten baby’s legs. At the same time they keep babies calm and safe and limit the risk of overheating. Midwives recommend th
